True wireless earbuds don't necessarily have to end up as electronic waste when their batteries reach the end of their lifespan. Fairphone demonstrates this with the Fairbuds 2, whose batteries can be easily replaced. The earbuds also offer active noise cancellation and support for Sony LDAC.
Well your questions sparked me to look again for a short cable that’s not $40…
And whatdaknow found these, look like same quality as the expensive ones and like $6. I ordered the blue and silver ones.

Once they get here in two weeks I’m going to try them out…but now I need to find a DAC/amp combo that’s clip on lol
Nice, glad that worked! I hope everything turns out high quality!
